i don't see anything wrong with using yogurt although it might chage the consistancy of this dish but if you use plan yogurt it shouldn't chage the flavor. what you should do is try yogurt instead of buttermilk by making pancakes and see if you can taste or see a difference! if it is a success let me know!
No as buttermilk is made of butter and milk and has a specific purpose in your recipe whereas yoghhurt contains bacteria and creates a different flavour, butter milk should be available in any supermarket and isn't to expensive
Use the same instructions for making yogurt from milk except substitute buttermilk for the milk.
No. Wine lacks the acidity found in vinegar.
Yes, but since balsamic vinegar is stronger, you'll want to use less than you would if you used white wine vinegar.
The best instruction is at: http://www.ehow.com/how_4868843_make-buttermilk-milk.html. Basically, for 1 cup of milk, you will add 1 tbsp of white vinegar or lemon juice. Mix them, and let it stand for about 5 minutes.
Vinegar will curdle cream or milk. If you need buttermilk for a cake recipe and have none, you can add a couple of teaspoons of white or cider vinegar per cup of milk, let it stand for about 15 minutes and it's ready to add to your batter.
If you are looking to replace white vinegar, any vinegar can be used but it might change the taste or color of the dressing. If you are looking to eliminate vinegar, lemon or lime juice might do well.
Yes, it depends on what you're making, however because buttermilk is acidic it is generally used in recipes to control the leavening/rising process. A straight substitute of milk is less acidic and will result in overly fluffy pancakes, etc... You can sour regular milk by adding 1 T lemon juice to 1 c milk and let stand for about 5 minutes. You can also substitute plain yogurt. It depends on what you're making but, for baking, buttermilk can generally be subsituted for whole milk.
Yes, but you have to adjust the acidity. Put one tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice or white vinegar in a measuring cup then fill to the one-cup line. Stir, then wait five minutes. The milk will thicken a bit when it is ready.
One tsp of white vinegar or lemon juice for every one cup of room temperature milk. Mix together and let sit for about 10minutes.
For baking purposes, you can substitute 1 cup of whole or 2% milk + about 2 teaspoons of vinegar (cider or white) for every cup of buttermilk called for in the recipe. It works best if the milk is not icy cold. Add the vinegar but don't stir. In a few minutes it will have clotted and is ready to pour in the batter.
